01About Monica
Monica Purvis is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, parenting challenges, relationship concerns, and recovery from trauma. She focuses on practical steps that lead to clearer thinking and steadier emotions. Her approach is straightforward and aimed at making day-to-day life easier for clients.
Monica draws on over two decades of experience to guide conversations and plan achievable goals. She listens without judgment and works with each person to find coping strategies that fit their life.
Background and approach
Sessions often break problems into small, manageable pieces so progress feels realistic. Her work covers a wide range of issues including anger, addictions, intimacy concerns, self-esteem, career transitions, depression, and ADHD. She also supports people dealing with complicated family situations, grief, and the strain of parenting.
Monica pays attention to patterns such as attachment struggles, communication problems, and impulsivity that can keep the same problems repeating. Monica uses client-centered techniques alongside cognitive behavioral methods and solution-focused strategies. That means she centers the conversation on the client, looks at unhelpful thinking patterns, and sets short-term goals to build momentum.
When trauma is part of the story, she applies trauma-focused practices to help reduce its impact on daily life. Clients can expect a calm and direct style that values clear next steps. Monica works in Georgia and conducts sessions in English.
She aims to help people develop skills they can use long after formal sessions end.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online options
Monica commonly uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy. Client-centered therapy means the conversation stays focused on the client's experience and priorities while the counselor offers reflection and support. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and helps people test and change thinking patterns that cause stress or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Monica will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That collaborative process can include mixing techniques so sessions match what is helping in real life.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, and messaging can support quick check-ins or ongoing written reflection. These formats make it possible to keep regular momentum and access help when challenges come up.
